Posted 3 hours ago3 hr No. Do we load the box, bringing Dillon Thieneman down to help contain PSU running backs? Make Allar beat us with his arm? Can he?Does Tosh have faith in our defense linemen to plug the holes? Not sweating getting 4 sacks, but forcing Allar to make the throws that he hasn't this season?Let Allar have the check-down passes, giving them 2-3 yards a play for passing but swarm tackling since we have 8 in the box?So many things I am thinking of for tomorrows game, and I know that OBD staff has 25 other things they are thinking/planning for!
2 hours ago2 hr No. The PSU OL to this point has been like a stationary wall. They don't get much push (low yards before contact), but don't let much get past them (low negative yardage plays) against poor competition.I take that to mean they are fundamentally sound, but not very athletic, or the running scheme has been a Mario Cristobal special.It's a bit of a conundrum to this point. I think PSU will want to run outside more against us like they did last year, but Oregon is much better at setting the edge this year than prior years. I wonder if we don't just put 5 down linemen and play single high safety and man coverage. Bottle up the run and make the QB beat us with his arm or scrambling.
